Okay, I'm trying to migrate my FreeSWAN 1.99 gateways over to OpenSWAN
2.1.1 with very little luck. My connection file on the gateway looks
like this:
----- START homeuser.conf -----------------------------------------------
conn homeuser
right=%any
rightsubnet=192.168.1.0/24
rightid=@home.domain.com
rightrsasigkey=<long key data deleted here.>
left=<external IP address of gateway here.>
leftsubnet=192.168.0.0/24
leftid=@gateway.domain.com
leftrsasigkey=<long key data deleted here.>
authby=rsasig
pfs=yes
ikelifetime=8h
keylife=1h
rekey=yes
keyingtries=0
auto=add
-------- END homeuser.conf ---------------------------------------------
I placed all of the connection information to the company FreeSWAN
gateway in the client machine's ipsec.conf file. However, when I try
starting ipsec it complains like this:
ipsec_setup: (/etc/ipsec/ipsec.conf, line 40) parameter is not within a
section
Line 40 is the entry for "right=". The client systems ipsec.conf file
looks like this:
--------- START ipsec.conf ---------------------------------------------
version 2.0 # conforms to second version of ipsec.conf specification
# basic configuration
config setup
# Debug-logging controls: "none" for (almost) none, "all" for
lots.
# klipsdebug=all
# plutodebug=dns
interfaces="ipsec0=d"
plutodebug=all
myid=@home.domain.com
uniqueids=yes
#nat_traversal=yes
# Add connections here.
conn office
left=%defaultroute
leftsubnet=192.168.1.0/24
leftid=%myid
# leftfirewall=yes
# lefttrsasigkey=<long key data deleted here.>
right=<external IP address of gateway here.>
rightsubnet=192.168.0.0/24
rightid=@gateway.domain.com
# rightrsasigkey=<long key data deleted here.>
authby=rsasigkey
pfs=yes
ikelifetime=8h
keylife=1h
rekey=yes
keyingtries=0
auto=start
--------------- END ipsec.conf -----------------------------------------
What does that error message mean? I commented out the *rsasigkey
entries when ipsec complained about not liking them in the same way it
is complaining here - "parameter is not within a section". The left and
leftid entries are valid IP adress in the wild and hostname
respectively. The client system fqdn has been inserted in our DNS
zonefile for forward lookup requests with a valid TXT record holding the
key. The home user has a gateway running 2.6.5 and OpenSWAN 2.1.1 and
the gateway machine is running 2.4.x and FreeSWAN 1.99. So, what have I
done wrong or missed? Thanks for any help, and thanks again to all who
pointed me to the ipsec-tools package on sourceforge.net.
